Phillies Sign Hebner to Fill Allen Cash Gap
The Philadelphia Phillies agreed to sign 29 year old Richie Hebner to play first base after releasing Dick Allen and Dave Cash. Hebner, who played third for Pittsburgh last season, will move to first base per manager Danny Ozark. In Milwaukee, three trades net eight players as they reshape the club amid a last place finish with 66 wins. The Brewers sent George Scott and Bernie Carbo to Boston for Cecil Cooper, acquired Jamie Quirk Jim Wohlford and a player to be named later from Kansas City for Jim Colborn and Darrell Porter, then added Larry Haney from Oakland. Cleveland reacquired Rico Carty from Toronto for Rick Cerone and John Lowenstein, saying they expected to reclaim him after losing him in the expansion draft.
